Couple of “rarities”… Mostly because they are not made anymore. Given that they have been “shed aged” for several years now, I’m not sure I’d want to try them either! 😇🍺👿❓

Teach a man to fish, he'll contribute to the global overdepletion of the ocean.

Let me explain (at length):

Farewell to the oak branch that was going to destroy my roof (eventually). We’d managed to coexist for over 30 years, but sadly my support became a bending point rather than a lifting point.

Milton, a category 5 storm once again, is increasing in size and it's still on a course for the west coast of Florida tomorrow night. It's time to finalize preparations and either hunker down or get out (recommended if you can). Details: theeyewall.com/milton-is-a-...

Lemons abound with little serious concern in the Atlantic. The main thing to watch will be excessive rain again next week in parts of coastal Texas and Louisiana, though some slight development can’t be ruled out. Here’s what’s up: theeyewall.com/lemony-a-ser...

Support in modeling for next week's Caribbean wave to develop seems to have dropped a decent bit, and any organization will be slow. Low pressure in the Gulf will continue to fling rain at coastal Texas, where totals are as high as 8-10"+ so far. Details: theeyewall.com/tropical-wav...

We are back. Today we discuss Beryl’s remnants and flooding/tornado risk for New York as well as a southeast system. We also need to clarify how we cover Houston on this site so people understand why we’ve posted little since Sunday. Read: theeyewall.com/beryl-brings...
Beryl brings nasty weather to the Northeast, while the Southeast gets grazed by a weak system

Caught totality at Dallas Love field. As you can see, partly cloudy, but still managed to get a few shots of the event. Solar prominences were visible to the naked eye.
